„It is almost impossible to overstate how the Russians’ full invasion of Ukraine affected Irish military doctrine and security thinking. It caused the Defence Forces to look at every conceivable threat to the state and also its own integrity.

🧵 Assassination of Lt. Gen. Fanil Sarvarov: A Modern Proxy Pattern?
1/ Today, Dec. 22, 2025, Russian Lieutenant General Fanil Sarvarov was assassinated by car bomb. The method—explosives under high-value target's vehicle—points toward a specific lineage of tactical tradecraft.

2/ Is it Ukraine? The CIA? Both? While direct proof is elusive, the DNA of this operation aligns perfectly with historical CIA proxy programs. From the Mujahedin to Iraq, "under-vehicle" tactics have been a recurring signature.
3/ The Soviet-Afghan War (1980s):
The CIA and ISI trained Afghan mujahedin in urban guerrilla warfare. This included remote-detonated car bombs targeting Soviet commanders and officials—a direct ancestor to the techniques we see in the field today.

Epstein the racist:
"they [top mathematicians] don't exist in China because you need a bit of a creative person as opposed to simply a copy cat."
Also this take is not only racist but also so so so stupid. Hua Luogeng literally rolling in his grave.

1- It is now clear that Pezeshkian’s government is a big failure, and no one can rescue it. Therefore, Pezeshkian’s unity partner, Ghalibaf, on Sunday threw down the gauntlet, warning Pezeshkian “either change some ministers or wait their impeachment.”

2- That was somehow unprecedented as Majlis Speaker Ghalibaf vigorously helped Pezeshkian’s ministers to receive votes of confidence.
Ghalibaf warning is coming amid economic turbulence, rising cost of living, hiking prices and the rapid depreciation of Iranian rial against $.

Lawmakers also want an acceptable response from the Central Bank’s Governor who can’t be questioned by the Majlis.

Been thinking of writing something. Read about Kerala and words 👇🏽wrote themselves. Purely fictional. Or is it?
Title: Who bears the Cross?
Once named sashidhar mahato, now Mathew, he had left his village in chattisgarh, years ago, seeking work in the lush fields of Kerala.
Title: Who bears the Cross?
Once named sashidhar mahato, now Mathew, he had left his village in chattisgarh, years ago, seeking work in the lush fields of Kerala.
As a Dalit Christian, he carried the weight of double marginality,shunned by upper castes for his birth, and sometimes eyed suspiciously by fellow Christians for his humble origins.
But in Kerala, known as God’s own country , he found steady labor in the rubber plantations near Palakkad. He sent money home to his wife and children, attended a small roadside church on Sundays, and dreamed of a better life.

more brainless stenography from the paper of record. Is anyone at NYT interested in doing any actual journalism or just running through a list of "officials says" and wholesale embracing the US govts line? lets break down the problems with the latest copy and paste job from NYT🧵
(1) The piece heavily implies that Venezuela's oil is under sanctions from "The US and other countries". It is not, it is only under sanctions from the US.
(2) we've now moved from scare quotes to the NYT just using the term "ghost tankers" This is a meaningless propaganda term

Why are they "ghosts"? Could it be because one country (the US) is stealing their oil? And they'd like them to not do that? Is anyone at the NYT interested in asking if these ships are hiding their location because the US is hijacking them rather than the current narrative...
Today’s #manuscriptmonday looks at one of the best-known elements in the Christmas story (a 🧵)..
One of the best-known elements in the Christmas story is the journey of Mary and Joseph from Nazareth to Bethlehem, despite Mary's advanced pregnancy, to participate in a census associated with a Roman official named Quirinius.
Writing towards the end of the Ist century AD, Josephus describes a census carried out by Quirinius just after Archelaus (a son of Herod the Great) was deposed as 'ethnarch' of Judaea by the Romans.

@vtchakarova - No actor can win a great-power war quickly or at acceptable cost
- Economic, technological, and supply-chain interdependence makes escalation self-damaging
- A multi-theatre war would overstretch all sides simultaneously
-Nuclear escalation risks are uncontrollable

@vtchakarova (& offer no strategic upside)
- All actors gain more leverage from rivalry, pressure, and signaling than from open war
Bottom line: High tension, sharp rhetoric & competition will continue. Direct great-power war remains irrational & avoidable.
